Over the weekend, "Brothers in Arms" activists spoke against the legal revolution in the hotels where the representatives of the federations are staying in Tel Aviv, and at the end marched to a demonstration in Kaplan.
Following the protest, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu canceled his participation in the Diaspora Jewry conference yesterday.
